Presenting my Lancelot Andrewes medal at St Alban the Martyr South Norwood to Val Green who contributes significantly to the life of the church always thinking of others. Good also to preach at the request of Fr Sean on the Nicene Creed - the Credo of our life together in Christ

A beautiful and dignified liturgy this evening for the ordination by the Bishop of Fulham of Fr Joshua Pollard to the priesthood. He was supported by family, friends, and fellow clergy, who all surrounded him with prayers and encouragement. ‘The One who calls is faithful’
